Figure 2From: Molecular analysis of lipoid proteinosis: identification of a novel nonsense mutation in the ECM1 gene in a Pakistani familyThe LP family pedigree and DNA sequence analysis. (A) A multigenerational consanguineous Pakistani family in which lipoid proteinosis (LP) is segregating as an autosomal recessive trait. (B) The electropherogram of an affected member revealed a homozygous C > T transition at nucleotide position c.616 in exon 6 while father's electropherogram revealed heterozygosity at the same position.Back to article page
